Well, my day went well...

I guess?

After arriving home from school, I just cooked for lunch and made him eat at the kitchen while Im on the sala. Wala kaming imikan ni Zach. It felt too awkward to broke the silence nor to had an eye contact with him so I stayed all day in my room. Im really avoiding him. Para na rin sa ikakabuti nmin.

In class days, I will just hop in his car and go out without saying a word. Syempre, ayaw kong mag-commute kaya tiis-tiis muna. I didn't even pay attention in him on class even though I can feel him eyeing on me wherever I go. In my seat which is 2 seats away from him, in cafeteria, in the hallway, library and even in the restroom! Dinededma ko lng siya at palagi kong kinakasama si Alex na napapnsin din niya ang pabiglabiglang pagsulpot ni Zach kung nasaan kami. He's stalking me and I find it creepy but also, some butterflies flutter in my stomach with just those simple act of making me secure. Also in our house. Good thing Dy and My didn't notice that I was avoiding him. Maybe they thought that we got again to some cat and dog fight with each other so they didn't notice it at all. Sanayan lng yan.

But the day Im dreading arrived. Starting this day, My and Dy will be out of town because of some business meeting. We dont know when exactly they will be home and I dont know if I can stand being with him the whole week or, month without engaging random fights or simple talk. He's still my brother though so I must treat him well.

Noong nakauwi kami ni Zach galing school yaon nman ang paalis nila my at dy.

"Bye My, Dy!"

I kissed them goodbye and hugged each of them. Also Zach did the same to mom and dad.

"I hope you two would be good to each other. And Zach, I will count on to your promise that you will be a responsible brother to our baby." Dad said while eyeing Zach who just nodded.
I on the other hand just smiled, nervously. The thought of us being alone in the house for a couple of weeks or month made me panick. I know! I've said this alot of times already!

"Take care My, Dy! Love you both. Be back as soon as you can. I will surely miss you."

They smiled in unison. "We will, sweetie." Mom kissed me again. Before leaving, dad beeped as a he drove away. And I was there, standing while waving my right hand and looking at the car which I cant barely see as they made their way.

"So were all alone, Gwyn." He said without looking at me. I can see him from where he is because he's just like three steps away from me. I could also see that his hands are now in his pockets. "We will be alone in that house for a couple of weeks and I am expecting you to cut your 'avoiding me' drama. You do know how I hate it. Naiiintindihan mo ba?"

Hindi ako nakinig sa kanya at naglakad nlng ako papunta sa loob ng bahay. Pero bago ko pa mabuksan ang pinto ay hinatak niya ako and pinned me on the wall. I could feel the cold wall behind me yet I could feel my body heating up! Damn! Malandi ka talaga Gwyn!

My cheeks were now burning and I gulped as I looked into his eyes. His orbs are browner than the  the usual, a sign that he is dead serious in this case. His adams apple bobbed up and down. I am not used of being this close to him. I cant help but to bite my lower lip due to anticipation, nervousness and  excitement. And it feels like there are millions of butterflies fluttering inside my tummy and Im quite queasy.

"Dont do that, Gwyn. Dont bite that lip. Or else.."

My heart is racing as he say those words. Ba't niya sinasabi ito? Is he aware that a brother and sister shoudn't be like this?

"Or else what, Zach?" I said toughening my tone just to let him know that Im not afraid nor affected by what he is doing to me but deep inside, my heart is melting and skipping a beat after a beat.

Hindi ako makahinga. Im suffocating and if this wont stop, I will surely die. I tried to push him but he just caught my hands. Para akong nakukuryente sa bawat hagod ng balat niya sa akin. I felt a burning sensation as he touches me and looking intently through my eyes, like he is looking through my soul. Pinagpapawisan na ang mga kamay ko pati na rin ang kili-kili ko. I know its gross but how can I help myself from feeling these things?! Grabeng kaba ang nadarama ko. Hindi ko maintindihan and nararamdaman ko. I feel like Im going to puke anytime! Ba't ba talaga ako nagkakaganito?

"A-ano ba itong ginagawa mo k-kuya?"

Nung sinabi ko iyon, para siyang nabuhusan ng malamig na tubig. Parang napukaw siya sa isang masakit na katotohanan. The reality that we are siblings and we shoudnt be like this.

"I-Im sorry. Lets go inside."

He said and left me without saying a word again. Uso ba talaga ngayon ang nang-iiwan bigla-bigla?

Because it was too hard for me to stay at the house with just me and him, I left. I want to go to the mall and forget about things. I also want some company but hell, alam kong busy si Alex ngayon dahil may make-up classes sya tuwing Saturday kaya I cant have his-- er her company at this time. Sigurado ako na pag sinabi ko ang nangyari kanina eh magtitili iyon.

After that incident, Zach left me and he isolated himself in his room. Dali-dali nman akong pumasok at pumunta sa kwarto ko. I find some cloathes to wear and spotted my black adidas hanging shirt and a faded ripped jeans. I also wore my white converse shoes and put some powder on my face with a very light lipstick just to make me alive. Para kasi akong zombie sa putla ng labi ko dahil sa nangyari kanina. Up until now, my heart was still beating fast and I still could feel the touch he gave me earlier. Damnit Zach! Youre my fucking brother for pete's sake!

I shrug the thoughts out of my head and got my purse and headed outside. Nabigla ako ng pagbukas ko, I saw Zach. His right hand was hanging in the air and I assumed he was about to knock on the door then I came out.

"What?" I muttered lifelessly. It took seconds before he can answer and I just stared at him, blankly.

"I-I was just, g-going to check on y-you Gwyn." He said stuttering. And why the hell Zach was stuttering? He can't even look me in the eye!

"Im going somewhere, to unwind. Dont wait for me if I will not be back after dinner. I had probabbly eaten by that time Zach. I will be home not past 8:30 pm."

He managed now to look me in the eye and asked "Are you with someone Gwyn?" He asked seriously as those brown eyes looked at me intently.

"Nope." I said nonchalantly trying to supress the smile on my lips. "At kung mayroon man, anong pakialam mo, kuya?" I said while raising my brow and crossing my arms on my chest.

Why is he acting like a jealous boyfriend?

"I promised mom and dad to be a responsible brother to you Gwyn and if something terrible happens to you, I will be the one to blame."

My eyes were filled with disappointment after hearing those. Kaya lng pala ganito sya makapagtanong dahil kung may mangyari sa aking masama, siya ang pagagalitan ni My at Dy. Well, what do I expect? Na nag-aalala lng siya sa kung ano mang mangyari sa akin?

Wake up Gwyn! That was long gone! Nawalan na siya ng pake sayo pagkatapos ng gabing iyon!

I just looked at him one more time and it was my time to leave him hanging, without uttering a word.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit pero nasasaktan ako.

Nasasaktan akong ginaganito ako ng kuya ko. At sa hindi maipaliwanag na dahilan..
